Cantilever beam with distributed load modeling

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

I want to simulate a cantilever beam fixed from one side and having a distributed load on one of its faces. I made a lot of changes and i simplified it very much, however i still receiving that error.

Error: 7248

Hi

this means, from my understanding, that your model is not fully defined, typically too few BC to have an unique solution

Good luck

I have defined one of the faces to be fixed, and all the remaining 5 faces to be free and one of them has a load on it.
what else i have to define.
I am appreciating your help.

Hi

then check your material data if there is not a red flag therein, or if you do not have a domai or BC definition but wotout having selected correctly the items
